I became a Graduate Member of the Institution of Engineers, Malaysia in 1999 and in 2003 undertook the Professional Interview with the Institution of Engineers, Malaysia (pending result of transfer), became a Member of the Institution of Incorporated Engineers (UK) and am now Registered as an Incorporated Engineer with the IIE and the Engineering Council (UK).

From 1997 I was employed by an electrical contracting firm as an Electrical Engineer and from 2000 to 2003 as a project management consultant (ISO certified) as a project engineer.

Reasons why I wanted to be a registered engineer

It is universally understood that a mere “engineer ” status given by an employer is not recognized internationally as a person having gone through a proper qualifying process involving the screening of the educational background and the type of training one has undergone.

It is in this regard that I wish to be recognized as a professional in electrical engineering practice through 3rd party certification. ECUK was known by me as a well-recognized engineering registration body as well as a qualifying establishment for qualified engineers. Therefore, I believe that I have chosen the correct path of getting registered and recognized, especially through a well–established registration body like ECUK.
